Gender non-conforming, intersectional feminist, geek, nerd, Hufflepuff, dog parent seeks same (or completely different!) people in need of a wedding officiant. Secular, spiritual, or religious; all genders, sexualities, and relationship styles (including ethical non-monogamy) welcomed and celebrated! I’m an ordained minister in the Universal Life Church, have a Masters degree from Duke Divinity School, and am certified through the Equality Institute’s LGBT+ Wedding Course. I provide elopement, wedding, and vow renewal services to people all across North Carolina.

Offbeat Brides are my people! I want to fully document your days. I will arrive three or four days before the wedding, shoot engagement sessions, families, luncheons, cook outs, strip joints, bars, churches, dinners, croquet matches, wherever the bride and groom, or the groom and groom, or the bride and bride go, I will be there with camera in hand.

Simply put, we are weirdos passing as normos, and weirdos are our tribe. We love all the love, joy, intimacy, carefully chosen details, colors, variety, and challenges that wedding photography presents. It’s essential to us to document you and your wedding as you really are, not as some glossy magazine or smarmy website (or, often, your mom) thinks you should be! Whatever excites you about your wedding—be it your venue, your décor, the fashion, or the food—is guaranteed to excite us, as well.

MY PHOTOGRAPHY BACKGROUND IS ROOTED IN BEAUTY & FASHION COMMERCIAL PHOTOGRAPHY, BUT I HAVE A LOVE AFFAIR WITH L O V E. YOUR WEDDING DAY IS AN INCREDIBLY SPECIAL DAY FILLED WITH JOY, LAUGHTER, TEARS, XO, LOVE, FRIENDS, & FAMILY. I PRIDE MYSELF ON GOING ABOVE AND BEYOND FOR YOU ON YOUR WEDDING DAY TO MAKE SURE ALL THOSE WONDERFUL & SPECIAL MOMENTS DURING (AND IN BETWEEN) NEVER GO UNNOTICED.

Hi, I’m Joy of Joyelan Photography. I capture the modern romance of fun and adventurous couples. Each wedding or elopement is a priority and I connect with my couples on a personal level because amazing photos are made when you feel completely comfortable being in the moment. I work with many down-to-earth, unconventional, and spontaneous people. The carefree couples that aren’t afraid of rainy portraits or tossing their shoes to run in the waves. The amazing mountain top weddings, barefoot beach elopements, intimate DIY backyard ceremonies, or romantic rustic cabin celebrations.

All Faiths Wedding Officiants of the Triad are the area's best wedding officiants. We perform ceremonies across North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia. We work with couples from all backgrounds. Each couple has complete control over the words that are said on their wedding day.

Let us introduce to you the artists Carolyn and Geoff. No, Geoff’s name isn’t Scott. That’s Carolyn’s last name. But wait, you might ask, if they’re a husband and wife photography team, why are they just named after Carolyn? Well, to put it simply, Carolyn started the business in 2008 and Geoff was just carrying around her bags because they were heavy, but then he got bored and started shooting full time at weddings and shoots too, and they’ve just been too lazy to rebrand.

Hello and welcome to All Bliss Photography, where you won't find posey posey traditional blagh, but candid, romantic, artistic images to tell the incredible story of your day. Offbeat weddings are, in my opinion, how they all should be — an expression of uniqueness and personality! All Bliss Photography has a way of capturing all of that radiating, individual style and romance in photographs. Emotions will not go amiss, you will feel the fun and the love each time you look at these images.

Events for the bold, beautiful, offbeat, nerdy and proud. At Muse & Delphia, we are kind of sick of seeing couples conform to Emily’s Posts rules of Etiquette. (She’s dead!) We are a little bored by the same rental items that have been used in weddings for the past 35 years.
